The Yankees Are Crazy
You guys want to trade away Brett Gardner are you freaking kidding me? The Yankees need speed, and they need people to get on base.

Gardy can provide in both of these areas, that the Yankees are lacking severely. If anything what about Jacoby Ellsbury?

Clearly the guy is talented but since being injured, he has not nearly produced; anywhere near what this guy is capable of bringing to the ball club.
Ellsbury has a "super blown up" contract.
It is no secret that the Yankees are notorious for giving away a "boat load" of cash to players and for some reason, once they come over to the Yankees, they falter.

"They should have never let Curtis Granderson get away." Huge mistake!
Here is what Brian Cashman had to say about the trade rumors.
"I am open to anything that anybody wants to talk
about, whether it's a full no-trade contract, a limited no-trade, no no-trade,
a prospect, a low-level, mid-level or high-level player," Cashman said.
"I'm just open to anything. It's business as usual"(Hoch).
If Cashman decides to trade Gardy, there will be plenty of
Yankee fans livid and that would include this writer as well…smh!
This is the time, when the Yankees are always trying to cut
some corners from their payroll.
Unfortunately, the Yankees have to sever ties from some of
their long-term commitments to veteran players.
For example, Player's like Gardner, who is 32, happens to have $39.5 million
remaining on his contract over the next three seasons.
The Yanks are contemplating a way, that they could swap
Gardner for a second baseman or a starting pitcher -- or possibly both -- they
are willing to entertain this madness.
My response to that, don't make that critical mistake guys.
Move Ellsbury and keep Gardner! That of course, is wishful thinking :)
I leave you guys with some of Gardy's highlight's from the first half of the 2015 season.Until my post enjoy and be well.
